Japan's initiatives involve educating the public on cyber risks, enforcing anti-cybercrime laws, and investing in cyber defense equipment and resources.
In terms of conferences and events, Japan is home to several important cybersecurity events and conferences. These include the “Japan Computer Security Conference”, which is held annually in Tokyo and is the largest IT security event in the country.
